Top step height rather than tread count, since the top tread is not a standing position on most ladders. Safety rail height then tells you what there is to hold at that point.

EN 131 covers general ladder use, EN14183 covers step stools and BS 2037/1 is the industrial classification. A site specifying one will not accept another, so the standard is read rather than assumed.

The practical figure, accounting for the user reaching above the standing position. That is why a 4 tread ladder reaches further than four tread heights alone would suggest.

Where the work is done standing still for a period rather than reaching and climbing down. A folding platform gives a flat standing area rather than a tread to balance on.

150kg across the range, which includes the user, tools and anything carried up rather than body weight alone.

A 2 or 3 tread step stool, which is quicker to deploy and store than a full ladder and is made to EN14183 rather than the general ladder standard.

Tread count sets the height but two other figures decide whether that height is usable. Top step height tells you where you can safely stand, which is not the top tread on most ladders. Safety rail height tells you what there is to hold onto at that point. Both figures are stated on the listing rather than being worked out from the tread count.

Standards on this leaf are not all the same and the difference matters. EN 131 covers general ladder use, EN14183 covers step stools, and BS 2037/1 is the industrial classification. A site specifying one will not accept another, so the standard is read rather than assumed from the appearance.

Maximum reach height is stated separately from tread count and is the practical figure. It accounts for the user's own reach above the standing position, which is why a 4 tread ladder reaches further than four tread heights would suggest. Aluminium keeps the weight down on a ladder that has to be carried between positions all day.

Platforms are a different form for a different job. A folding platform gives a flat standing area rather than a tread, which suits work done standing still for a period rather than reaching and climbing down. Maximum load is 150kg across the range. Send the standard your site specifies to 07754288583 on WhatsApp and the ladders that meet it get identified. Folding platforms also fold flat, which matters where the ladder is stored rather than left standing.
